[QUOTE="nhl_bullitt, post: 650877, member: 7451"] I've built a **** ton of XJs. Blue one was on 1 tons, red one on 3/4 tons, but was honestly just built for my girl as a mall crawler. 3 link the front! Get as much wheelbase as you can (within reason). Blue was 114, red was 107, with leafs still in back on that one btw. Are you plated yet? Get ruffstuff stiffeners if not. Awesome starting point. Posted is a pic of the passenger side upper link frame mount. Build your link mount on the inside of the frame rail. Then run a plate ALL the way from outside of stiffener to the edge of your new mount, across the top. Then run a long grade 8 bolt through that WHOLE thing. It is stout as hell, and will not fail you. Make sure that link mount is welded to a big plate that you rosette welded to the inner frame rail though.
